A Depressed Kendo Player Possesses a Reckless Aristocrat

23 – Assassination of the 1st Princess (3)

“……”

The first princess of the empire, Lucy von Rietro.

She was sitting blankly on the floor of the banquet hall.

Lucy rolled her blank eyes and looked ahead.

In front of my eyes was a banquet hall that had been ruined into a mess.

Broken glasses, overturned tables, and bloodstains.

Seeing that scene, Lucy felt a sense of confusion.

quivering eyes.

In her eyes, the arrows that fell on the floor entered.

The arrows were soaked with bright red bloodstains and pieces of internal organs.

It was only after seeing the disgusting sight in her eyes that Lucy began to understand the situation belatedly.

‘I… was just about to be assassinated…?’

When I thought about that, my body started to tremble.

I didn’t notice at all.

Even though the arrows were flying, I didn’t even feel the presence.

No matter how much she was relaxing and enjoying the banquet, Lucy was a strong player in the 30th place in the academy.

Had it been a normal attack, she couldn’t have gone unnoticed.

For the first time feeling,

Panic came over the fact that death passed right in front of his nose.

‘What do we do? You didn’t even bring a weapon? Are you going to die like this? No… no… I’m scared… I’m scared…’

No matter how much you are a princess, no matter how strong you are,

After all, a young girl who is only 18 years old.

She swallowed her tears and muttered to herself.

‘Help me… anyone…’

The thing that brought her to her senses after she was in such a panic was-

-visor! Kagagak!! empty!!!

It was the sound of swords clashing violently.

The banquet hall was filled with a loud, resounding sound.

Lucy, who was trembling and hugging her knees, raised her head slightly at the sound and looked ahead.

As far as my eyes could see, a man was fighting a gangster in a robe.

Slightly cold impression and tall body shape.

Black hair resembling the night sky that fluttered every time he swung his sword.

A boy with slightly dark circles under his eyes was swung with a sword covered in blood.

Lucy saw the blood soaking the boy’s suit,

He remembered the fact that he had been shot with arrows on behalf of himself and his younger brother.

‘Raiden…’

Looking at the bloodstains, Lucy shuddered once more.

Did Raiden stop it?

how do you know

Where did you suddenly appear?

You must have been hit by an arrow, but how are you moving?

no more than that…

why…?

Why did you save me…?

In Lucy’s field of vision, a blue barrier shimmered near her.

It was the magic scroll that Raiden had just used against her and her brother.

Scroll, Absolute Shield.

A scroll that summons a divine shield for about 30 minutes.

This scroll, which boasts insane performance to block all physical and magical attacks,

It is said that gold will not go unless the dragon comes directly and breathes.

Of course, it is hard to find as much as the performance is good, and the price is high.

With the money to buy one Absolute Shield Scroll, it was enough to buy an entire baron.

He used such a scroll casually.

……why?

why…?

His head, which had been dizzy from the sudden terror, became even more confused by Raiden’s actions that he did not understand.

As she stared at him with blank eyes, her eyes met for a moment as he wielded the sword.

Lucy flinched and shuddered because she looked so frightened to see her covered in blood.

Then Raiden smiled slightly at her, as if telling her not to worry.

“……”

Lucy felt her mind go blank at that smile.

The smile he had just smiled at himself,

It looked so similar to the smile he had when he and she shared the knight’s oath when they were children.

Witnessing that smile, Lucy couldn’t put her head in order anymore.

He just stared blankly at Raiden.

-Where you go!!!

The sound of swords cutting through the wind resounds, and numerous slashes rush towards me.

Perhaps because of his ‘super sense’, he was able to roughly predict where the attacks would fly just by listening to the sound.

‘Back, right arm, neck, left abdomen, legs.’

After reading the attacks, I moved my body slightly and avoided them with a single piece of paper.

-Wheeik! Wedge!

Seven swords that cut through the air in vain.

A look of bewilderment appeared on the faces of the assailants who were brandishing swords.

Among those assailants, I looked at the two whose staff were staggered and staggered because their attacks missed.

And then I memorized the chant.

“Blink×2”

– Pajik!

As my vision flickered, my body moved in front of the two of them.

Staring into their eyes stained with bewilderment and surprise, he swung his sword vigorously.

-Stand up!

With a single slash, the heads of two people are sliced at the same time.

Two heads are seen detaching from the neck and levitating.

Before the heads even hit the ground, they parted their lips again.

“Blink×3”

– Pajik!

vision blinking again.

My body passed by the two monsters who had become Dyurahan, and appeared in front of the other monsters.

“I thought it would show up like that again!!!”

“I’m searching !! This chewy!”

The assailants wielding swords as if they were expecting me to appear in front of them.

I gave him a frustrated expression.

Damn, was the pattern too monotonous? got hit…

– I would have expected a response like that.

I’m sorry, but I already knew that you guys were stocking up.

Even though I knew it, it was a fake that appeared right in front of you guys.

I slightly twisted the corner of my mouth in a mocking way.

“Blink×1”

– Pajik!

Before their swords fly at me, I take the lead.

I quickly moved to their square and drew a long horizontal line with my sword.

-Chwaaak!!

A solid red line drawn in the air with a loud sound.

With drops of blood scattered in all directions, the waists of the guys who had been throwing swords at me were separated from their lower bodies.

The facial expressions of the other assailants who were poised behind the three-footprints were distorted.

“That crazy…”

“Hey! There was no mention of a guy like that in the banquet hall!!”

“f*ck! Is that a student?! Isn’t that a sword master?!”

I left behind the assailants who buzzed like mosquitoes, and brushed off the blood that was splattered on my sword.

– Hooded! Hooded!

Whenever he swings his sword on the floor, drops of blood are roughly engraved on the floor.

Looking at the marks, I rolled my eyes indifferently.

Around me, there were seven corpses with parts of the body severed.

Four had their throats cut off, two had their lower bodies cut off, and one had their heads cut off.

“Now there are only three left…”

Raiden muttered that while checking the status window.

“Status window.”

-Titling!

[Remaining duration of ‘Super Sense’: 2 minutes 17 seconds]

[Current Status: Injury, Exhaustion, Physical Limit]

About 2 minutes left…

I took a deep breath and thought.

Although I’m definitely overpowering the gangsters, I’m not in a good state.

His left arm was deeply cut, and the blood was soaking through the sleeve of his dress.

Because of the excessive movement, the muscles of the whole body screamed.

‘As expected, Raiden’s weak body quickly reaches its limits…’

His left arm twitched and did not move as he wished.

Unintentionally, a situation where a side sword is used like a one-handed sword.

I’m forcing my right arm to move, but… it’s not something I can do for a long time.

I feel the strength in my right arm gradually draining away.

-Titling!

[All available counts for the skill ‘Blink’ have been consumed!]

[Remaining number of uses (0/10)]

[2 hours 40 minutes 19 seconds until next mana charge]

Just in time, all of Blink’s activation counts were consumed.

‘Sibeol… The situation is going back like sh*t…’

The left arm is retired, the rest of the body is on the verge of limit.

And in front of me were at least three swordsmen of A rank or higher.

A cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

All of your cards have already been used.

There are a few spare cards left, but they are still a waste of time to get out.

“Whoa…”

I caught my breath and raised my sword again.

If you lift the heavy side sword with one hand, it’s heavy and I’ll dig it.

I think this ligament will inevitably increase.

I thought to myself and took a stance.

From now on, it is an extreme physical battle.

Pure sword fighting, without any additional skills or items.

sh*t……

You’re too tight…!

-Tadak!

I stepped on the staff thinking so.

Seeing me like that, the assailants raise their swords again.

“aaa!! Search!!!”

The one standing at the forefront wields a sword.

Maybe it’s because he’s tired, his posture is a lot messed up.

‘My father said so.’

-Don’t let the tip of the sword shake.

-An attack with an unstable sword tip is weak and the posture is easily broken.

-In short, such an attack is no different from a weakness.

Responding to my father’s voice ringing in my ears, I savagely counter attacks directed at me.

– Empty!!

With a loud sound, the arm holding the sword turns to the other side.

Without missing the gap, I stabbed my sword into the guy’s heart.

– Push!

The sword pierced the middle of his heart with a terrifying sound.

As I twisted the sword once and pulled it out, I felt my heart crush and feel it exploding through the sword.

“Oh sh*t, Sibaal!!!”

As soon as he pulled out his sword, another assailant attacked from behind.

Due to the fairly close distance, the proper reaction was delayed.

-visor! Kagagak!!

“Ahh…!!”

I quickly raised my sword and blocked it with a cross guard, but it wasn’t perfect.

“Keuheuk…!!”

A burning pain felt in the shoulder.

I groaned at him and looked at my shoulder with a side glance.

It’s a relief that he blocked it even belatedly, otherwise his body would have split in half.

“Look around!!!”

A monster who screams and powers his sword.

– Pudeuk! Poududeuk!

With a bloody sound, the sword dug deeper and deeper.

I gritted my teeth in the far-off pain and endured the loss of my mind.

“뒤지긴… 누가 뒤져… 이 개새끼야!!”

I received the power of the sword far away and moved my right foot.

Then, gathering all his strength, he kicked him between the crotches.

– Pleas!!

At the same time as an unpleasant sound echoed, I felt two eggs being crushed with my toes.

“Kukkuk…! Kkukkkuk…!!!”

The man’s biggest vital point burst out in pain, and the guy rolled his eyes and convulsed.

At the same time, I lost the sword he was holding.

I quickly swung my sword without missing him.

– Seokkul, seokjul! Awesome!!

After both arms and head were cut off, the body of the bare body, with only legs remaining, collapsed to the floor.

Watching that scene, I let out a rough breath as I controlled my embarrassing body.

“Keuh, heo, kuh, heo, kuh…”

With each exhalation, a little blood gushes out of the mouth.

The left shoulder where the sword was embedded must have completely gone, I can’t even feel it anymore.

Holding the sword in his hand like a cane, he straightened his staggering body.

“This… this crazy…”

In front of my eyes, I see the last person standing.

The man whom the 9 gangsters I cut off called the captain.

One of the culprits who killed Raiden’s mother.

He was looking at me, trembling as if he couldn’t understand the situation.

Seeing that face, Raiden’s anger surged inside him once more.

‘I have to kill that bastard…’

Using Raiden’s rage as fuel, he forcibly moves his body, which has reached its limits.

As I take a step toward him, he screams in terror.

“Hey, hold on!!”

I was so flustered that even the dignified tone I had been using just before had disappeared.

No f*ck, was that the concept of the tone?

Something doesn’t seem right.

As I looked at him with a puzzled expression, he said in an urgent voice.

“Ooh, let’s have a chat, huh?”

What bullsh*t…?

The bastard who just boasted that he killed Raiden’s mom… Conversation?

My expression contorted as I looked at him at the absurdity and the disgust rising from within.

Seeing my expression like that, he shouted urgently.

“Sir, f*ck!! Actually, I didn’t do that!! I wasn’t the one who killed your mom!!! A colleague told me…”

“Shut up.”

It’s disgusting, so it’s hard to listen to it any more.

“Whether you killed my mother or not.”

I raised the sword that had been resting on the floor again.

“From the moment you talked about your mother’s death and made fun of it, you were dead.”

When I said that and ran toward him, he also shouted and ran.

“Oh sh*t, Sibaal!!!”

The two swords that rushed at each other meet,

-Seokkeok

Accompanied by the sound of flesh and bones being cut,

– Chaeng-Geurang! Tuduk…

The sword the man was holding and both of his severed hands fell to the floor.
